Overview

Apex is a town in Wake County that follows a council-manager form of government. Apex has a mayor and five council members, which serve as the governing body for the town. The Council appoints the  Town Manager, Town Attorney, Town Clerk, and members of boards, committees, and commissions. These officials are elected at-large by Apex residents for four-year terms.

The Town Council has regular meetings on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month at 6:00 pm in the Town Hall Council Chambers (73 Hunter St). The Town Council also has work sessions on the third Tuesday of each month at 3:30 pm. Agendas for all public meetings are posted on the Thursday before the meeting at 5:00 pm.

Citizens can provide public comments at meetings, either in person or virtually. To comment in person, citizens must sign in with the Town Clerk before the meeting. To comment virtually, citizens can submit a written statement at least two days before the meeting. Written comments can be submitted by emailing public.forum@apexnc.org or public.hearing@apexnc.org, or by mailing the comment to the Office of the Town Clerk (73 Hunter Street or P.O. Box 250, Apex, NC 27502).

In addition to a town council, Apex has multiple citizen-run advisory boards and committees. All members of advisory boards and committees are appointed by the town council after submitting an online application.
